2. 1. Coagulant Protein from plant materials: Potential Water Treatment Agent

   Author : Ida Bodlund; Gunaratna Kuttuva Rajarao; Anna Norström; Andres Veide; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; antimicrobial effect; Brassica; coagulant protein; MO2.1; Moringa oleifera; Mustard; napin; thermo-resistance; plant material; protein extraction; salt extract.;

   Abstract : Access to fresh water is a human right, yet more than 780 million people, especially in rural areas, rely on unimproved sources and the need for finding ways of treating water is crucial. Although the use of natural coagulant protein in drinking water treatment has been discussed for a long time, the method is still not in practice, probably due to availability of material and limited knowledge.

4. 2. Familial thrombophilia : Resistance to activated protein C and protein S deficiency

   Author : Bengt Zöller; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Inherited resistance to activated protein C (APC-resistance) and protein S deficiency are associated with functional impairment of the protein C anticoagulant system, resulting in lifelong hypercoagulability andincreased risk of thrombosis. APC-resistance is the most common genetic cause of thrombosis being present in 20% to 60% of thrombosis patients. READ MORE

5. 3. Moringa seed and pumice as alternative natural materials for drinking water treatment

   Author : Kebreab Afwerki Ghebremichael; Bengt Hultman; Hallvard Ödegaard; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; antimicrobial effects; coagulant protein; dual media filtration; ion exchange; Moringa oleifera; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Pumice and the Moringa oleifera (MO) seed were investigated as alternative natural materials for drinking water treatment based on problems identified at the Stretta Vaudetto water treatment plant in Eritrea. Lab and pilot scale studies showed that pumice was a suitable alternative material for dual media filtration. READ MORE

6. 4. Streptococcus pyogenes - a manipulator of human defences

   Author : Fredrik Kahn; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Streptococcus pyogenes; M protein; neutrophils; platelets; platelet-neutrophil complexes; fibrinogen; IgG; abscess; venous thrombosis; heparin binding protein; thrombocytopenia;

   Abstract : Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen with more than 500 000 casualties annually of which at least 163 000 are due to invasive infections. The remainder is due to post-streptococcal complications with rheu¬matic heart disease constituting the majority. S. READ MORE

7. 5. Pro- and anticoagulant mechanisms in coronary artery disease. Clinical studies on factor VII and resistance to activated protein C

   Author : Johan Holm; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein C; Factor VII; blood coagulation; myocardial infarction; APC resistance; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; warfarin;

   Abstract : The triggering mechanism in myocardial infarction (MI) and unstable angina involves coronary thrombus formation following plaque rupture. Coagulation is initiated by tissue factor that activates factor VII (FVII), and is inhibited by protein C and its co-factor protein S. READ MORE
